"Yes, Your Majesty."

Xiao Ping'an stood up.

"Ping'an, how old are you this year?"

"Your Majesty, I am now twenty-one."

"Twenty-one years old, ah, my eyes are like water, the world has changed in a blink of an eye, when you were a child, I held you in my arms, I didn't expect that in a blink of an eye, you are so big. As the saying goes, men should get married when they are old enough and women should get married when they are old enough, but before a man gets married, he must have a career, otherwise, there will be a lot of gossip, and it is easy to cause dissatisfaction from his wife and her family... Your father and I are brothers, brothers in life and death, I can't ignore your affairs, how about it, do you have any ideas about the future? Don't be afraid, tell me boldly, maybe I can satisfy you!"

Emperor Jing said with encouragement.

"I don't have any ideas." Xiao Ping'an said.

"How can you be so lazy?"

Emperor Jing glared at him, "Do you want to be a salted fish? I tell you, you are the Duke of Xiao, the son of Xiao Zhan. Others can live a life of idleness under the protection of their family, but you can't. Because you want to marry my daughter, Xiaojiu is not simple. Her mother is Concubine Li and her grandfather is Yang Su, the King of Zhenxi. If you don't have a grand official position, how can you be worthy of her?"

I don't want to marry, but you insisted on giving it to me...

"Your Majesty, I..."

"Okay, peace."

Emperor Jing interrupted him directly, "Now Daqian is in turmoil, and it is you who are Good man, it's time to make achievements. Since you don't have a goal, I will give you one. In Zhongzhou, there is a guy named Wang Cao. He is so bold that he dares to gather people to rebel. He has already captured three counties. This time, I will appoint you as the imperial envoy to quell the rebellion and wipe out Wang Cao and other rebels. "

Knowing that he couldn't refuse, Xiao Ping'an said very straightforwardly: "Your Majesty, how many soldiers are you going to give me?"

"One..."

"Ah. Your Majesty, you only give me one person to quell the rebellion. Isn't this a bit too much?" Xiao Ping'an said with a bitter face.

"Listen to me." Emperor Jing glared at him,

"Why don't you interrupt me before I finish speaking? It's really rude."

After scolding. Emperor Jing said, "Not even one."

"Your Majesty, you've finished speaking."

"Yes."

"Well, you don't give me any soldiers, how can I suppress the rebellion?"

"You see, you're anxious again. So, I'll give you an imperial edict. When you go to Zhongzhou, you can use this imperial edict to mobilize troops and generals. All the troops in Zhongzhou can be mobilized."

"Your Majesty, can I not go?" Xiao Ping'an said.

"Of course not."

"When will you leave?"

"..."

"Xiao Ping'an, why don't you say anything?"

I'm tired, let's destroy it quickly.

"When your Majesty tells me to leave, I'll leave."

Xiao Ping'an said.

"Hahaha, good, you are worthy of being my good son-in-law. Let's set off in three days.

Ping An, when you successfully suppress the rebellion and come back, I will reward you and let you have an identity that can match Xiao Jiu. In this way, you can marry Xiao Jiu in a grand manner. At that time, I will see who dares to say that you are not worthy of Xiao Jiu."

Emperor Jing smiled kindly and drew a very big pie.

"Your Majesty, well, for the sake of safety... In addition to the imperial edict, please give me another pill at random. After eating it, the realm can be directly improved by three levels."

"Kao, this kind of elixir, I still want it!" Emperor Jing couldn't help rolling his eyes.

"No." Xiao Ping'an looked disappointed: "Then is there a sword that can behead a stupid... ahem... stupid prime minister, or a treacherous minister? Give me one."

"What is a sword? Daqian has been established for more than 700 years, and there has never been such a thing."

"..."

"Okay, Ping'an, you can leave."

Seeing that Xiao Ping'an was getting more and more outrageous, Emperor Jing waved his hand with some disgust.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

...

Xiao's house.

Main hall.

A group of women gathered together.

Xiao Ping'an told a group of women in the family about Emperor Jing's request to go to Zhongzhou to quell the rebellion.

Seventh sister-in-law Ruan Qiuhua frowned and said, "What, Your Majesty asked you to go to Zhongzhou to quell the rebellion?"

"Yes." Xiao Ping'an nodded.

Ruan Qiuhua frowned and said, "Zhongzhou is different from other places. It is not only the largest province in Daqian, but also a sacred place for martial arts. Although it is the territory of Daqian, there are countless masters there. Almost 90% of the top fighting forces in the entire Daqian are gathered in Zhongzhou. There are countless martial arts sects. For the martial artists there, killing officials and rebelling is a piece of cake.It is as normal as eating and drinking. "

"Although it is the territory of King Huai'an, in fact, King Huai'an can only manage a very small area. Not long ago, he just made a big move and encountered a series of assassinations, which made him embarrassed. Those who wanted to reform Zhongzhou immediately stopped. "

"Yes."

The old lady nodded and said with a worried look: "Of all the states in Daqian, Zhongzhou is the most dangerous. It is said that there are eight grand masters in the whole Zhongzhou, and no one knows how many grand masters there are behind the scenes. The first martial saint on the God List, Ouyang Longcheng, is from Zhongzhou. In the past 700 years of the Daqian court, except for the period of Taizu Zhou Lang, no emperor has ever truly controlled Zhongzhou. "

Third sister-in-law Jiang Xiaowan said: "I heard my father say that if you don't have the ability, don't go to Zhongzhou. It is said that there are many masters in Zhongzhou. It is very common for a master to die there."

Third sister-in-law's father is the leader of the Cao Gang, Jiang Wentian. He often travels all over the country and is considered an experienced old man.

What he said must be very reasonable.

"Really? After hearing what you said, I'm a little scared."

Xiao Ping'an said.

Ruan Qiuhua looked into Xiao Ping'an's eyes and said seriously: "If you just go to Zhongzhou for a tour, although it is dangerous, it is not dangerous. However, His Majesty actually asked you to quell the rebellion. This is not a simple matter. After all, the sects and martial arts masters in Zhongzhou are not in harmony with each other. From the sects to individuals, they often fight because of interests, territory, grudges, etc.

However, their attitude towards the imperial court was always the same. They regarded the imperial court's people as their lackeys, and would kill one if they saw one, or a pair if they saw two. No matter how fierce the fight between the two sides was, as long as the imperial court's people appeared, they would instantly put aside their grudges and join forces to deal with the imperial court's people.
